I know this is probably a long shot but a picked up a 'bunch' of these pallet fork bridges with a lot of watch parts. Do any of you have a clue as to what watch/movement they may be for? I'm rather surprised that a watchmaker would have so many of these on hand (three dozen). Do they fail often? Seems they would be for a popular watch if one was going to buy so many. Anyway just curious. Thanks a million!

That is almost impossible. What other parts is there.  Could be a FHF of some caliber. As i have seen  they usually looks like that.  74 maybe.

Wow, thank you!  That's the info I needed!  I think you're spot on with it being for a FHF movement!  Many, many, thanks for the response!  No, there were no other identifying parts in the lot.  Hundreds of stems which of course were unmarked as well.  Thanks a million!

      Managed to clear the short, cleaned and oiled the movement. Now testing for 24 hours before I case it up. The movement is so small that it's loose in my smallest movement holder.

      Message board problem

      By Mark · Posted

      Looks like the kind of message that occurs when there are routing issues between your local network and the remote server the site is living on - there can sometimes be 20 or 30 hops and when there are issues some of those hops become unavailable temporarily for some people but for others where there is a different path being used the issues are not manifest. Another explanation, and this used to happen to me a lot with my ISP, is using the ISP DNS servers on your device or router sometimes is not as robust as changing to a public service such as 1.1.1.1 or similar. I was having a terrible time watching Youtube a while back - changed the DNS on my Apple TV to use 1.1.1.1 and problem solved. However, these issues tend to resolve themselves fairly quickly.

      As mentioned by the other members, it’s a dismantle job clean and inspect the solder joints. It’s an older generation using the paxolin pcb  not the glass fiber ones.
